The vertical scale does not start at zero: the baseline sits just below this program’s smallest year, so a low point on this line is not a small amount. Read the shape for direction and the grid below for the figures.
● actuals (line) · ○ enacted · ◇ request — gaps are editions the program is absent from, never interpolated.

Asked vs spent: the PB2019 book requested $11.7M for FY2019; the PB2021 book reported $8.07M as actual total obligation authority — $3.68M below the request. 8.07 − 11.75 = -3.68 USD millions — the compact figures above are rounded for reading.
Program lineage
No predecessor/successor lineage was recorded for this program element — no FY-to-FY transfer into or out of this line was stated in the ingested J-books, and none was inferred from the program structure.
Description
Mission — Soldier Support and Survivability
This Program Element (PE) supports component development and prototyping for organizational equipment, improved individual clothing and equipment that enhance Soldier battlefield effectiveness, survivability, and sustainment. This PE also supports the component development and prototyping of joint service food and combat feeding equipment designed to reduce logistics burden.
Mission — Food Adv Development
This Project provides for the advanced component development and prototyping of Joint Service combat ration components/platforms and field feeding equipment designed to improve warfighter performance and reduce the logistics burden of subsistence support. Efforts funded in this Project support all four Services, the Special Operations Command, and the Defense Logistics Agency. The Army serves as the Executive Agent for this Department of Defense (DoD) program, with oversight and coordination provided by the DoD Combat Feeding Research and Engineering Board as required by DoD Directive (DoDD) 3235.02E. Centralized execution of the DoD Combat Feeding Research and Engineering Program (CFREP) with Joint Service review and approval eliminates unnecessary duplication of efforts across the Services and maximizes use of common materiel solutions. Prototypes validated within this effort transition to Army Program Element 0604713A (Combat Feeding, Clothing and Equipment) / Project 548 (Mil Subsistence Sys) for System Development and Demonstration. Work in this Project is performed by the United States Army Futures Command (AFC), U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM) Soldier Center (SC), Natick, MA.
Justification
Accomplishments & Planned Programs (2)
Joint Service Combat Ration Advanced Development
This effort matures and integrates combat ration technologies and prototypes that enable warfighter maneuver, readiness and effectiveness during highly mobile, dispersed operations. Technologies are transitioned from RDTE Budget Activity 3 projects to provide individual and group combat rations and components with improved capabilities including improved warfighter physical and cognitive performance through optimized nutrition and a reduced logistics burden through weight and cube reduction.
Joint Service Field Feeding Equipment and Menu Development
This effort matures and integrates field feeding equipment technologies and prototypes in support of the Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps that reduce the logistics burden, improve efficiency, and decrease operation and support costs as directed by the DoD CFREB. This effort also conducts test and evaluation (T&E) on Navy Standard Core Menu components and preparation techniques to enhance efficiency through standardization across the fleet and reduce labor requirements.

Follow the dollar
No follow-the-dollar view — this program's awards haven't been crosswalked at high confidence (flows cover 312 of 1,938 programs). why coverage is partial? →
Awards
No awards are linked to this program element at high or medium confidence — the budget→award crosswalk only asserts links it can defend, and this line has none yet.
Lobbying mentions
No Senate LDA lobbying filing in the tracked data mentions this program element by code or alias.
Oversight
Department-level designation (not specific to this program)
GAO lists 5 high-risk areas for DOD as a whole. That designation covers the department, not Soldier Support and Survivability. No program-specific GAO finding for this line is in the ingested data. See the DOD oversight record.
Program dossier
No research dossier for this program — dossiers cover 50 of 1,938 programs, the largest fully J-book-detailed lines by FY2026 requested dollars. why no dossier here? →
